Mango Margaritas

Saturday, February 11, 2017

Since it's Saturday, and I'm dreaming of the warmer days of spring I figure there's no better time then the present to share my favorite recipe for Mango Margaritas! We made a pitcher of these last weekend to go with Fish Tacos with Blueberry Mango Salsa. It wouldn't be Mexican night without a Margarita!

Mango Margaritas are up there in my top 3 favs! I like to use frozen mangoes so they stay slushy, and don't loose flavor from too much ice. I'll add a cup of ice cubes or additional frozen mangoes to the pitcher to help them stay cold longer. I find a few whole ice cubes melt a lot slower then once they are pureed, and prolongs the slushiness of the Mango Margaritas.

Are you ready for the recipe?

Our blenders on it's last leg so I had Colt use the Food Processor, but I usually use the blender. Add to the blender or food processor 2 pounds Frozen Mangos, and 1/3 cup Sugar.

Juice 1 cup of Fresh Lime Juice, it's about 3 whole Juicy Limes. Add lime juice to mangoes, and puree until smooth. If you are using a food processor whatever you do don't add the alcohol at this point..

If you are using a food processor whatever you do don't add the alcohol at this point.. Colt usually doesn't use the food processor, so he forgot their was a hole in the middle. He just finished adding all the liquid when I walked into the kitchen.. Two seconds later it started running out the bottom of the food processor, it was quite comical mess. So we grabbed a bowl to strain out the liquid. If your using the blender everything can go in.
